The Asianadian was the first Canadian magazine aimed at Asian Canadian people. Created in Toronto, it ran for 24 issues which were published from 1978-1985. The magazine remains a significant part of Asian Canadian culture and the only inclusive Asian Canadian periodical to-date.[1]

In the beginning, the periodical was to be called Crossroads, and intended to be a Hong Kong News magazine written in Cantonese for Chinese and Hong Kong Canadians. Eventually the project evolved into the Asianadian after a conversation between the three founders at the Mars Restaurant in Toronto.[2] The three founding members are Tony Chan, Cheuk Kwan, and Lau Bo.[3]
